old love revisited

Chapter 14 False Love (2)
"Silly boy, I have been working in the Qu family for so many years without any worries, and I have already regarded you and the master as my relatives. No matter how many things I can do for you, I will be happy."

"Sister Chen, thank you." Qu Ranran's eyes were filled with tears as if she had found the warmth she had not seen for a long time.

"What a silly boy..."

Fearing that she would be so attached to such a family relationship that her emotions would be exposed, Qu Ranran quickly changed the subject, "Stop talking about it, let's talk about tomorrow's business."

Sister Chen asked, "Have you figured out a solution?"

Qu Ranran shook her head lightly, and suddenly remembered the meeting with Guan Hao in the morning.

Seeing that Qu Ranran's eyes were suddenly out of focus, Sister Chen asked nervously, "Is something wrong? You asked Mr. Guan to help, but he didn't?"

After recovering, Qu Ranran immediately shook her head, "No! Uh, why wouldn't he help? He's just at the US headquarters. I've called him a few times in the past two days but I haven't been able to reach him. Tian should be busy with his business, you know, he has to manage such a large company, and when he is busy, no one is allowed to disturb his work."

I was sweating all over the explanation, but fortunately, Sister Chen didn't see the clue.

Sister Chen said, "But tomorrow is the trial day, and it will be too late by the time Mr. Guan returns to China..."

Qu Ranran nodded, "Now we can only figure out a solution ourselves."

Seeing Qu Ranran's worried look, Sister Chen said with concern, "You are pregnant now, don't worry so much, even if you lose the lawsuit and 'Qu' is gone, it is not as important as your body."

"I know, I'll take care of myself."

"Don't forget that Master will always silently protect 'Qu'."

"Ah."

"Miss, since President Guan didn't come back tonight, why don't you go back to Qu with me tonight..."

Before Sister Chen finished speaking, Qu Ranran's cell phone rang suddenly.

Glancing at the number displayed on the phone screen, Qu Ranran froze for a moment, hesitating between answering or not.

"Did Mr. Guan call?" Sister Chen asked after seeing the number displayed on Qu Ranran's phone screen.

Sister Chen doubted it, so Qu Ranran tried her best to smile sweetly, "Yeah."

"Then hurry up, it's best if Mr. Guan can help."

At first, Sister Chen thought that it was impossible for Guan Hao to help Qu Ranran. After all, the accuser was the woman Guan Hao loved the most. It can be seen that after Qu Ranran successfully asked Guan Hao for help last time, Sister Chen didn't do it anymore. Prevent.

"Uh, okay." In Sister Chen's eyes, Qu Ranran answered the phone she least wanted to answer in her life, "Hello..."

Guan Hao's cold voice came from the phone, "Where is it?"

Her heart was cold, but she smiled, pretending to be coquettish, "I'm having dinner with Sister Chen outside!"

"Come back!" The word without warmth meant that he was extremely unhappy at the moment.

"Okay, I'll go home right away, you send someone to pick me up!"

Beep, beep—

He ends the call.

Qu Ranran put down her phone, deliberately concealed her embarrassment with a shy expression, and said softly, "That's how he is, every time he can't find me, he is very anxious..."

Sister Chen nodded, "Then you go back first, and it's a good time to talk to him about the master at night."

Although Qu Ranran's acting skills are good, Sister Chen is dubious.

Qu Ranran stood up, bit the bullet and agreed, "Okay...Okay!"

After sending Qu Ranran out of the coffee shop, she didn't believe what Qu Ranran said until she saw Qu Ranran get in the car Guan Hao sent to pick her up.

The car drove into Guan's house smoothly.

Qu Ranran took a deep breath before entering the villa.

Guan Hao was sitting on the soft sofa in the backlight of the living room, his slender legs crossed, and a glass of unknown liquid was held in his right hand.

At this moment, he was looking at the arc of the liquid jumping, and said coldly, "You seem to have forgotten my warning to you."

He had said that she was not allowed to go anywhere without his permission.

He used such a cruel way to make her remember every word he said, she naturally remembered, but she didn't want to talk to him at the moment.

So, Qu Ranran stood not far from him, but remained silent.

She knew that she had such emotions because of what happened in the morning, but she just couldn't control herself at the moment, even though she knew that doing so might have serious consequences.

"not talking?"

Guan Hao got up and put down his wine glass, then walked towards her.

She turned her head away, deliberately not to look at him.

He turned her face and stared at her deeply, his eyes radiated a strange danger in the dim light.

She closed her eyes and was still touched by him, but remained silent.

His slender fingers touched her face, and his fingers slowly slid from her cheek to her chin bit by bit.

Suddenly, he grabbed her throat and exerted a slightly heavier force.

She was trembling with pain, but she clenched her teeth tightly, unwilling to open her eyes.

He gradually increased his strength, she tightened her eyebrows in pain, and it became more and more difficult to breathe...

When her face was still pale to the point of death, he suddenly let go.

She choked a few times and took a few steps back, then stroked her chest, looked at him in despair, and said weakly, "Ah, why don't you make a move? Do you think I'll die? I'll fulfill you!" , you killed me!"

As if he didn't care, he said coldly with his thin lips, "Do you really want to die?"

Her face was pale, like a withered flower, and she smiled sadly, "You are so sensible, how could you impulsively commit murder because of me... I'm just curious, how did I offend you, Is it worth your effort to take care of me?"

Her words are full of deep hatred, and no one will know that when she said this, she was pinching her thigh hard, reminding herself with pain——

Qu Ranran, you can't cry, even if you have nothing, you can't lose your dignity in front of this person...

He didn't respond, but just looked at her arrogance at the moment.

She looked at him and asked ironically, "Why, Mr. Guan, you stopped talking?"

He frowned.

She noticed that his face was still cold and ruthless, and she seemed to want to say something more, but at this moment, her eyes darkened, and she finally fell powerlessly in front of him...

It was dawn early, and the curtains were closed tightly. Qu Ranran woke up from her sleep, as if she had a very painful dream, and there were still wet tears in the corners of her eyes...

Sitting up, she recalled last night, those conversations between her and him still clearly lingered in her mind, she gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, as if nothing had happened.

Suddenly thinking of today's day, she didn't think about how she got on this bed, rubbed her belly, and got out of bed immediately.

Picking up the phone, Qu Ranran saw several missed calls from Sister Chen in her phone.

She anxiously dialed it, but accidentally saw that the time displayed on the top of the phone was already twelve noon, and Qu Ranran froze in place in bewilderment.

Just when Qu Ranran was in a trance, her cell phone vibrated suddenly.

Seeing Sister Chen's number displayed on the screen, Qu Ranran woke up from her thoughts and hurriedly pressed the answer button, "Sister Chen, the trial..."

Sister Chen interrupted her in a relaxed tone, "With the help of the lawyer Mr. Guan called, the trial has a good result."

Qu Ranran's eyes widened in shock, "He... did he help?"

"Of course, didn't you ask him to help?"

"Uh, yes... You said the result was okay, what was the result?"

"Although the other party has sufficient evidence, our lawyer still found doubts. Because the judge found it difficult to make a ruling, we decided to have a second trial. The lawyer said that the preparation was not sufficient this time, and he will be sure to win the lawsuit next time."

Qu Ranran breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."

"Miss, Mr. Guan said that you didn't feel well last night. Are you okay now?"

"I'm fine. I may have caught a cold last night, and my stomach has been uncomfortable..."

In the afternoon, walking in the garden, Qu Ranran still couldn't figure out why Guan Hao would help her, so she struggled for a while and sighed for a while...

Noticing Qu Ranran's expression, the servant couldn't help asking, "Young Mistress, are you worried?"

Qu Ranran was supported by a servant and sat down on a wooden chair, and said softly, "Have you ever been in love?"

The young maid raised her head and said, "Of course, how can there be no one in this society who hasn't been in love?"

"Is your current boyfriend treating you well?"

"He treats me very well...although he is not very rich, but as long as I am on vacation, he will come here to pick me up, and then we will go shopping, watch movies, and on the anniversary of our acquaintance, he will send me off Flowers or gifts..." After sputtering a series of words, the young maid belatedly covered her mouth and looked at Qu Ranran secretly.

In fact, everyone in the Guan family knew that the relationship between Guan Hao and Qu Ranran had broken down, and Guan Hao's kindness to Qu Ranran was also because of the child in Qu Ranran's belly.

Qu Ranran gave the maid an encouraging smile.

The maid said awkwardly, "Uh, young mistress, I didn't mean to mention this in front of you..."

"It's okay, I've never been in a relationship, so it's interesting to hear about your love experiences."

Hearing what Qu Ranran said, the maid opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Young mistress, don't you and your husband fall in love freely?"

Qu Ranran shook her head lightly, then looked far into the distance.

The maid frowned and said, "Miss, actually, I think Mr. is very kind to you... I heard from several senior sisters in the Guan family that Mr. has always been very kind to you during the two years of your marriage. Because Mr. did not attend your father's funeral, the relationship between the two of you is in crisis..."

Qu Ranran smiled coldly, "Really, do you think he treats me well?"

The maid nodded, "Young Mistress, I'm sorry to say that, in fact, we all feel that between you and your husband, it seems that you don't care about him... In the past, every time my husband came home, you were neither cold nor cold." Yes, afterward the relationship got bad, so you just let it go, but Mr. is different, he took you back when he knew you were pregnant, if you didn’t eat, he forced you to eat, if you were self-willed, he let you go, Something happened to you, he came back as soon as possible..."

It turned out that he was so "good" to her, why didn't she feel it at all?

What they saw was just his appearance. If they saw the ruthlessness with which he strangled her throat yesterday and wanted to kill her, would they still think that he cared about her?

They don't understand at all, he is moody, his thoughts are deep and difficult to guess, even if he suddenly treats her well, he probably has ulterior motives...

night, hotel.

In front of the suite door, Zou Ji frowned worriedly, "Boss, Miss Qin is useless for lunch and dinner, now..."

Guan Hao glanced at Qin Zixin who was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in a state of depression at the moment, and waved, "You go down first."

"Yes."

……

Coming behind Qin Zixin, Guan Hao said quietly, "Are you angry with me?"

Qin Zixin, who was in a daze, didn't seem to hear, and was still looking ahead.

Guan Hao didn't comfort him either, he just turned around and left.

Hearing the sound of Guan Hao's leaving footsteps, Qin Zixin suddenly stood up, faced him, and said sadly, "You didn't even give me an explanation?"

Guan Hao stopped his pace, turned his back to her, and said calmly, "I don't think there is any need to explain between us."
